Most Stupid Thing You Have Done.....?

In german class many years ago, I was asked to say "I will take a shower tomorrow"(In german natch), Genuis boy here says "I will take a shower with him". Half the class laughs (the other half were as bad at german as me) eventually i realise my mistake and say "Oh I'm sorry, I will take a shower with him tomorrow".

Also there was the time I was out with a mate and we meet some friends of her's, I introduce myself, and one of them looks at me funny and tells me her name is catriona.

Two weeks later I bump into my mate and I ask her about the friend and the funny look she goes "yeah that was Catriona", "Yeah I know says I", she looks at me and says "Catriona who you had the one night stand with two years ago". "oh" says I. :eek:

she mustnt of bee great looking!!! mine was in 1st year and on the same day we had our first french and german tests so i stayed up nearly all night learing all my grammer and verbs for both of them and ended up doing the french one in german and the german one in french

I ran down my road - barefoot - at 2 o clock in the morning on an impulse to nick the 30 mph sign on the pole which had been knocked down earlier that day. I don't think I even wanted it, I definitely don't want it now. It just seemed like a good idea at the time.
At a family 21st, beer kept appearing in front of me so I drank and drank and then later undrank all the beer upstairs in the hotel room in full view of my dad, although I'm sure this happens to a lot of people......right?
And finally, for now, I left my kit bag, with uniform in it, at the 11 bus stop near my school. I realised at the next stop, had to get off, walk back and get the bag, and then get a different bus home.

A few of my most famous would be playing hide and seek at like 5.30 in the morning after drinking for about 4 hours. I then managed to trip over a dog and break my shin bone, I still don't know how, I mean surely my shin wouldn't even have touched the ground because of my knee and foot...

Another would have to be playing "catch the flaming tennis ball" in a small room with a big window. Needless to say I managed to singe my eyebrows and fall out of the window, at the same time. Luckily twas only about 4 feet from the ground.

And one more would be laughing so hard at someone slipping while getting off a bus that I cycled into a parked car, resulting in the car's alarm going off and drawing the attention of everyone around to me

My own favourite (recent) faux pas was using one of those tempoary ATMs they have in Tescos.

Put in card.

Removed card

Keyed in money amount

Took amount of money, and stood waiting for my card.

Still waiting, as a queue was building behind me.

Shouted at the machine "Steal my f**king card".

Buddy asks did I put it back in my wallet.

shouted reply "No this stupid langer thing swallowed it" (i wouldnt have been so annoyed only that i was away in hols about 4 hrs later), and proceeded to kick said machine 3/4 times.

Buddy asks me to at least check my wallet, after which i put my hands into my pockets and walked away whistling as non-chalantly as possible.

Stupidest things i ever did?
This one time....abc.....I grew up right beside maynooth college...and had a skateboard....and maynooth college has a deadly footbridge....know it?....anyway...first time ever standing up on a skateboard was a the top of said footbridge facing the library.....2 secs later i was flying down beginning to lose my balance.....then found it and thought...wow...this is easy.....then hit the little tar bump where the bridge hits the erm...road?......I woke up a few minutes later surrounded by cute girl students with concerned looks...who in turn were surrounded by hysterically laughing male students.....and i couldn't find my skateboard....and everything was in tones of grey. Skateboard was buried in a hedge about head height. Security barred me for about the 20th time that week.

Never did get good at skateboarding....

This other time....out with gf at the time and her damn cute friend when i lived in Limerick....suggested jokingly a 3some....everyone laughed.....gf went to toilet...cute friend and i discussed 3some idea further.....both agreed in the name of drunkenness it seemed a good idea....resuggested it not so jokingly when gf returned....Eddie rockets staff overhearing everything were waiting with apprehension for her decision.....she said she'd see what happens when we got home.....at which time she passed out...which left me and cute friend looking at each other ..... thinking the same thing......then I took the moral highground and called her a taxi and brought unconscious gf to bed and fell asleep cos i loved her......broke up a few weeks later......

stupid stupid stupid love.

I'm embarassed now!

had ocassoin in jervis street where i left my leather jacket behind me in the changing rooms of debenhams, went down to tesco and only copped my loss of jacket when i went for my wallet to pay, had car keys in ajcket also so got freaked on a major scale, am a loose nerve at best of time ( suffer from both claustrobhobia and agrophobia - wonderful combinatoin!!!), went up to where my car was parked and it wasnt there (dragged three security gents with me). ended up spending guts of two hours wit security and found out i had put my jacket back on an hanger in debenhams, personally placed it back on a rack, had been tried on by a customer who handed my keys back to the cust serv desk and wandered off with my jacket, security have face shots but said, 'happens frequently', but at least i got to drive away with a shadow of a gram of dignity,
